Statement by H.E. Dato' Syed Mohamad Hasrin Aidid, Permenant Representative of Malaysia to the United Nations at the general debate of the 55th Session of the United Nations Commission on Population and Development, New York, 25- 29 April 2022. |
| Abstract |
Malaysia’s socio-economic development has been significant in transforming our economy from a low income to an upper-middle-income status. We have achieved significant progress in eradicating poverty and narrowing inequalities. However, the COVID-19 crisis has resulted in vulnerable households falling into poverty and hardship. |
